Now THAT's What I Call A Hip-Hop Quotable

Fat Joe has been attending the Democratic National Convention this week and had some harsh words for Daddy Yankee. Everybody now knows that Yankee has publicly endorsed McCain and claims that he has the ideals and experience to lead the country. He also claims that McCain has done a lot to help his Latin people. Well, Fat Joe Wasn't feelin that! He had some choice words, referring to Yankee as a sellout, and I must say I agree with everything he said. He truly got to the heart of the matter, I couldn't have said it better myself: 

“Put this in the News headline: ‘Fat Joe Says Daddy Yankee Is a Sellout,’ ” the MC said via phone from Denver, where he’s attending the Democratic National Convention. “Just like that! I gotta go in. I’m talking to little cousins that like [Yankee] and all that, and they’re starting to believe that John McCain is [the best candidate]. I can’t have that.

“I opened the newspaper and got sick to my stomach,” Joe continued. “I felt like I wanted to vomit when I seen that. The reason why I called him a sellout is because I feel he did that for a [publicity] look, rather than the issues that are affecting his people that look up to him. How could you want John McCain in office when George Bush and the Republicans already have half a million people losing their homes in foreclosure? We’re fighting an unjust war. It’s the Latinos and black kids up in the frontlines, fighting that war. … We over here trying to take the troops out of Iraq and bring peace. This guy immediately wants war. If not with Iraq or Afghanistan, he’ll start a new one with Iran. I feel real disgusted that Daddy Yankee would do that. Either he did that for a look, or he’s just not educated on politics.”
